Fenton, MI — August 17, 2023
Sometimes the stars align, and everything falls into place. Such is the case for a popular local restaurant that is receiving the recognition they deserve. The Corner Bar and Grill in Fenton was recently featured on an episode of America’s Best Restaurants.
Owner Justin Knight brought his idea of a different kind of restaurant to Fenton in 2015. For the last eight years, he has served the best homemade food, craft beer, and handcrafted drinks in his unique rock ‘n’ roll gastro pub.

The popular YouTube video series “America’s Best Restaurants” features community eateries that stand out for their food, atmosphere, and popularity among customers.
